Details
"Each night, choose a player: you learn their alignment. [+0 to +2 Village Idiots. 1 of the extras is drunk]" The Village Idiots are a group that learn players’ alignments. The Village Idiot that is drunk is chosen by the Storyteller during the game setup. There may be one, two, or three Village Idiots in play, irrespective of the number of players. If there is only one Village Idiot in play, they are sober. The drunk Village Idiot may get true information. When Village Idiots are added to the game during setup, they replace other Townsfolk. If a Village Idiot is created mid-game, only one is created. Village Idiots act one at a time, not all together. If all sober Village Idiots exit play, the remaining drunk Village Idiot remains drunk. If a sober Village Idiot becomes drunk or poisoned by other means, the drunk Village Idiot remains drunk.
How to Run
  1. While setting up the game, before putting the character tokens in the bag, replace zero, one or two Townsfolk tokens with Village Idiot tokens. While preparing the first night, mark one Village Idiot with the DRUNK reminder.
  2. During each night, wake any Village Idiot. They point to a player. Give a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Put that Village Idiot to sleep. Repeat until all Village Idiots have acted.
